Food for thought... I doubt anybody's account got hacked into. Typically you anti-virus can be defeated if you open a link that has your interest and download the trojan sw or whatever. The it will spoof a sender from their conact list. This prevents tracing it back. So if you are the sender... Mostlikely its not the one. It will send the suspect link to evryone in their contact list with someone in the list showing as a sender... Then if somebody else who receives the email opens the link.... Process repeats itself.
It doesn't matter how many levels of security you have if you open the link... Just sayin... Delete those e-mails without opening the link and delete from the trash folder...
